nice wallet

i hope in one of next wallets u add the zero micromanagement needed POS behavior of DMD

that autoadjust splitstake and groupstake with merge coin piles deepens on age and size of coins

No need, staking a few million in 1 block, it has not split once, really nice feature,
so none of that other stuff is needed for Noble since it does not split blocks with every reward.

AG18



Few million in one block might not be a good idea.

Try to stay within couple of mil per block for optimum staking given current diff.
Algo punishes too small or too big blocks

Good news, fuzzbawls spent some time to do all of the legwork for a fully static raspi build!

Qt: https://www.dropbox.com/s/71q4y6e3a36p46w/RATECoin-Qt-v2.0.0.4-Raspi2.tar.gz
Headless: https://www.dropbox.com/s/au38oem2q6nke9k/RATECoind-v2.0.0.4-Raspi2.tar.gz

I will note, however, that these binaries are compiled against bdb5.3.28 instead of bdb4.8.30. transferring files from a 4.8.30 based build over to these won't be a problem, but going the other way will cause errors.

---------------------
Install Instructions
---------------------
1. Download
2. Untar
3. Run
4. Profit!

I will get these added to the official release page asap!

Very nice, thanks fuzzbawls.

Presstab, you should of seen fuzzbawls on IRC passed few days while you were away, he couldn't wait to give you this nice suprize. He wouldn't share with us what it was Grin

Now I need a raspi to try this out.

Project is in the preliminary stage of the assumptions. Main proposition: coin should be scalable to very high transaction traffic.

Non mandatory wallet update - version 2.0.4

Changes
- Changing layout to black.
- Fixed issue present in version 2.0.3 where colors were not displayed correctly.

Feedback is welcome
Please let me know if everything is fine or if you notice any issues. This update does not touch anything important hence risk should be minimal but lots of files were modified. I will appreciate your feedback.

How to upgrade
1. It is always a good idea to backup your wallet.dat file.
2. Download, unzip and run newest version of client.

Do I have to upgrade?
No, you don't. This update is just about graphics.

What's the recommended size of transactions to ensure staking will work best?
In theory 2 000 000 coins is best size. However it reality it depends what is the current network difficulty and how many wallets are staking. Personally I never had any issues with transaction sizes between 100 000 - 2 000 000.

Just one question for you now, Kushedout: is Ratecoin staking heavily loaded in favour of a few? Yes, or no. Simple.

My experience is that it is. I believe that your answer will be of interest to potential investors and I don't think the question is irrelevant. I'll come back to you later with a more comprehensive post dealing with your previous comments and any answer that you may care to give in the meantime.

If anything, that's a loaded question for a simple answer, but if you want simple answer, than No. It favors smart stakers.
494  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [XRA] RateCoin | PoS | Unique Generous Rewards | Low Supply Inflation on: November 12, 2015, 11:56:29 PM
I note also that Kushedout thinks this diversion is gold. I agree with him. I shall shortly deal with his last post where he avoids my main question and resorts to name calling again.
[/b]

I didn't name call, I stated a fact, you are a newbie. This is based on your registration date, Comment Count and your lack of trading and staking skills.

Name calling is what you did when you called us "organ grinder" and "monkey."

I thought I did answer your irrelevant questions,  If not, please clarify.

@ sparksi
Thank you for your explanation of staking. To pick up on one of your points: "With 50 000 XRA you are expected to stake once in less than three days (0.00064 * 480 / 0.8 = 0.384)". I can assure you that this didn't happen. It might be probable for one such stake to mature if you had a large number of such amounts, but not with a single amount in my experience. If I remember rightly, the probabilty indicators of my wallet showed I was over a week away from stake maturation at the three day stage. I invite genuine potential investors to try this with an individual amount of 50,000 XRA if they are of a mind to verify this.

The Ratecoin major stakeholders are in pole position and seem to have reduced staking to a numbers game. This is done by carpeting with large numbers of small amounts to effectively squeeze others out. It might be viewed that this is similar to a Ddos attack, but in this case it is a significant denial of staking for ordinary investors that is taking place. Possibly mega-amounts are punched through when opportune staking windows occur, but that is supposition on my part. Nothing wrong with such shrewd practice. My main beef was that, by omission, people were not being told the full story. It seemed to me that they were being lured into buying and Kushedout's post caught me at a time when I felt very strongly about this (see my original post).

Well over half of all XRA is currently contained in 10 addresses (55.92%). 91% of all XRA is in the top 50 addresses. 98.10% of all XRA in existence is in 100 addresses. That in itself poses the question: Just how many of those addresses are contained in one wallet?

Take a look: http://www.presstab.pw/phpexplorer/XRA/richlist.php  The pie chart explains all. The Rich List prominently includes you, Kushedout, PressTab.

If you examine my addresses you will find that I had one block with a lot more than 50,000 XRA in it and it didn't mature after two weeks of staking. This admittedly wasn't continuous, but was for substantial periods every day, or two, over a period of two weeks. I had several other smaller, but not inconsiderable amounts staking at the same time. All my main addresses were in one wallet and my attempted staking occured recently in October and this month, November. I included all my addresses to show a paper trail if anyone wanted to follow it.

I don't want to keep on answering quibbles, or side issues to all and sundry. My main point was to point out that the staking probability of XRA is heavily loaded in favour of the few who own millions of XRA and have crowded out the blocks with high numbers of small amounts.

So, let's stick to my main point: is Ratecoin staking heavily loaded in favour of a few, and importantly were people being told about this when several of you were outlining staking strategies? I await Kushedout's answer since my comments were directed mainly at his post.

It's true that short term staking is more favourable for large wallets who can have smaller blocks for staking leading to smaller weight loss when they stake. But this coin offers also option for long term staking. Maybe if you bought at 600 sat and don't have patience for 256 days then I liberate you to announce your fingers burnt. Cheesy If I analyzed your addresses correctly you had ~40 000 XRA untouced for 13 days. Are you certain that you had your wallet unlocked for POS for that whole time? During that time you should have staked. And on 10th of november you reseted all weight you had. Not sure about your balance nowadays, but it should take time now. I'd say most feasible thing would be to gather all your XRA into one big block and wait for 256 days to receive 25 % stake. That way you have huge weight on that block when it's ready for staking.

Your analysis of my addresses is incorrect. If I remember rightly my wallet contained XRA on the way to 200,000. One of my addresses contained an amount in the order of 100,000, possibly more. Well over, the ~40,000 you suggest as a maximum. I had several addresses with different amounts staking. Don't pick on one that you feel comfortable with. Please don't clog up the thread with innaccuracies to obscure my point, or I will repost to make sure that you don't succeed.  I don't want to stay here any longer than necessary. My comments were directed at Kushedout. He challenged my assertions. I answered him. Let the organ grinder answer, not the monkey.

"organ grinder answer, not the monkey."  This is gold.

I answered all your questions above.

Anyways, I am done with you. Looks like you got burned due to bad staking and trading strategies and you are trying to blame someone.

Go increase your noob post count somewhere else.

1) is Ratecoin staking heavily loaded in favor of a few = Compared to what coin? also, the coin are distributed pretty fairly in my opinion.
Also, that could be double edged sword, depends who is holding those coins, wouldn't you rather be by those who hold it long term and dont dump, (look at HyperStake BE for reference, specifically my address and presstabs, since you name dropped both of us.) in 2 years there hasnt been a single dump.)


2) were people being told about this when several of you were outlining staking strategies? = what you mean several of us outlining staking stratgies, and "stratigies" that were discussed were done either on this thread or #Ratecoin. Not sure I understand where you going with this one.

And if you think someone needs to have millions of XRA to make staking worth while, than all it would take is about 1btc for you to be in that league, as sparksi mentioned earlier.

We all bought this coin fair and square, it is not my fault I own more XRA than you, I invested and risk money on this just as everyone else did, including presstab.  Yes, I might of risked more than you, there for my reward should be higher.  

How did you lose money on XRA anyways, unless you bought at 500s or something when it spiked, and if thats the case, than you suck at trading and should stop.

[Previous quoted post]


I think i know who the puppet master is of this "noob" account is.
Never the less, not sure if you said anything negative in regards XRA in your reply, you just validated few of my points and were way off base on the rest due to your lack of knowledge on the specs of the coin. Even still,  your reply makes XRA sound better than 99% of the shitcoins out there, including yours, spots Wink


1) Although I'm tagged a 'Newbie' because I rarely post, my account is not new. Neither am I. I've been around for quite a bit.

2) I'd like to know who the puppet master you think I'm supposed to be is. Or is that an attempt at a deflection from the real meat of the matter?

3) I was giving an honest opinion of Ratecoin. I see no value in being negative for the sake of being negative. I'm just pissed off in seeing another PressTab influenced POS coin luring me into a dead-end. Wasting my time and money. I think that is a fair comment that newer investors could verify for themselves.

4) I do have a knowledge of the specs of the coin. Tell me why you think my comments are wrong. You didn't in your reply. THAT is telling!

5) I'm not sure what you mean by my coin. Do you mean I own an altcoin, as is if I'm a developer, or something? I have holdings in a range of altcoins. "Spots?" What's that supposed to mean - is that your all-knowing guess at who you think I am supposed to be? Feeble. Pure nonsense. Stick to the point.

I think that intending investors should look at your reply for the very little substance that it contains.



1) Yes, you are a n00b.

2) And what is the "meat" of the mater?

3)  wtf does this even mean? "PressTab influenced POS coin luring me into a dead-end"

4) even if you do know about the coin specs, its impossible for you to have utilized it to the fullest, with the highest bracket of interest stake payout by locking blocks, since the coin hasnt been around that long.

5) cant believe I just fed a troll.

By the way can you show proof of your loss? Trade history Or the address you were staking with?

If you can post what I requested above, I'll give you 50k XRA.
498  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [XRA] RateCoin | PoS | Unique Generous Rewards | Low Supply Inflation on: November 12, 2015, 03:19:56 AM
what's a good price to be in, I'm seeing that xra is moving nice and good wave, should I buy it?
Nobody can advise you to buy anything right now but in case of XRA its a staking coin so you can check explorer how good XRA holders are doing in staking since they are staking. Some big balance wallets already staked almost 1 bitcoin as a reward which i consider is very generous even in this price so If you are familiar with Ratecoin history and its ups and downs and planning to buy a decent amount of coins to lock in for staking then this price is definitely an opportunity thats all i can say  Smiley
Thanks for your answer, it's very clear, even if I'm not very familiar with the past of XRA, I will check some and I think it's a good coin to own

Freemarket decides the price. However, things to consider when investing and in this case XRA.

1) Scam = Definitely not
    [= biased opinion of a major holder. Not an outright scam, but loaded in favour of the select few.]

2) Developer = Presstab (enough said)
   [= enough said!  While Press Tab has a good developer reputation, every coin he touches turns into a coin for the Old Boys. New investors can't get a smell in. They have to break through a barrier of millions of coins staked in small amounts by investors such as you which makes the difficulty sky high for other investors. This excludes most new investors from significant staking. This coin is controlled by an elite few. Highly centralised.]

3) Community = Solid and growing
   [= the small, early adoptive community is solid, which is understandable since they own most of the coins, but I don't think that community is growing. A lot of people are turned off by the poor reward (if any) after many days staking of large amounts. I could probably get more from visiting XRA coin faucets.]

4) Longevity = Still in early adopter stage, low supply, most of the supply is held by long term stakers, (little chance of dumps), claimed addresses for reference http://www.presstab.pw/phpexplorer/XRA/richlist.php
   [= yes, most of the coins are held by early adoptive stakers and the richlist you point to is highly illuminating - but you don't highlight the block explorer, which shows that the barrier of micro-stakes held by the select few are the ones that are staking, blocking out ordinary investors with much larger amounts staked. Here, take a look at the hashes and who the stakes belong to: http://www.presstab.pw/phpexplorer/XRA/index.php]

5) HyperStake (XRA big brother) been around for over 2 years, still listed and activly traded on most major exchanges, so I asume XRA will follow in HYP footsteps.
   [= Ah yes, HyperStake! That says it all and the newbies still fall for it. The arch-Emperor's New Clothes coin.]
 
6) Fun as hell to stake, specialy when it comes to using the lock block feature.
   [On behalf of those who have had their fingers burnt by this coin: ya gotta be kiddin'!!!]

7) I would add some more stuff, but I am on my cell phone. Smiley    
   [Please do.]

Happy Staking.

This coin is sterile. New investors, beware. Check out my comments in [bold].
